SOCK HOP - For this rockin' good time for the entire family the gym  transforms into a sock hop where kids and parents can twist to the songs from the Fifties.  Pizza, hotdogs and root beer floats can be purchased in the lunchroom or save your appetite for the cake you can win in the Cake Walk challenge.   This event is set for February 8 at 6 p.m.

WALK-A-THON - All the students are invited to seek out friends, family and neighbors to sponsor them in a walk-a-thon style fundraiser.  A circular path is outlined in the playground and students run, walk, ride or jog around the path as many times as they can.  Refreshments and music are on hand to add to the excitement.  This year's event will be on May 28.
